efficient fairings don't just need to be "cool" to go mainstream. They need to be cost effective. people don't typically spend $2000 on a fairing. I can even find fairings specifically meant for racing at $700 for a full set. If you could buy a fairing and matching "trunk" for $500, I could see lots of people buying them for their scooters and small bikes. especially in MI where it's cold for so much of the year. I already see people out on bikes wearing full snowmobile gear when it's 40 deg out.
